senator harry reid, the democratic leader, said it would be foolish for us to pass a budget. he didn't mean that -- and i've said this on the floor. he knows i've said it. he didn't mean that because it's foolish for america that we would have a budget. he meant for the politics of the senate because, as has been suggested, you pass a realistic budget today, some people are going to be complaining. it's not easy. it takes courage. so i thank all of you for having the courage to produce a budget, and i am embarrassed and i apologize the united states senate has gone over 1,000 days without having a budget. so, martha, thank you for introducing it. i'm hopeful senator snowe and i believe she couldn't be with us today, but olympia and i believe that if the house can move this bill to success, i don't believe there can be many logical and principal arguments against it. and i think it would increase dramatically our ability to get it passed. thank you for your leadership. any questions that you'd like to -- yes. >> the debt now equals the size of the economy. s&p is warning of an
